It’s August 12th. You’re listening to the President’s Daily Brief. Your morning intel starts now. ------ First, the Center for Disease Control announced new COVID recommendations yesterday, rolling back lots of restrictions. You may have seen that story but what you probably didn’t see is that half of America plans to ignore that advice; they refuse to move on. We’re going to discuss who those people are, and why their refusal matters. As always, I’m keeping an eye out for developing stories. Put these two on your radar. First, the biggest fire in Cuba’s history is out, but the crisis is just beginning. And that could mean a rush of migrants to our southern border. I’ll update you on that development. Second, Ukraine’s top law-enforcement official says that, once the war with Russia is over, everybody should buy more guns. That’s a big policy change for that country. We’ll discuss it. And finally, one more thing before I let you go. Two questions from listeners, one about solar panels and the other about wanting some good news. So we’ll talk about that. ------ Please remember to subscribe if you enjoyed this episode of the President's Daily Brief. Email: [email protected] Learn more about your ad choices.
